Right.

The lions and the hyenas and the gorillas are all in the same place and they're all, you know, they're all about to fight or something.

And then it becomes obviously AI because it's too good to be true.

I have no interest in seeing it.

So we might all just withdraw our attention from these channels.

I mean, I do think there are things that we could know they were purely created by AI where we wouldn't care.

In fact, we just want the best version of that thing.

Right.

So like if you told me, I don't know, there's, you know, a new car was designed by AI, but it's just, it's just the most gorgeous car I've ever seen.

Yeah.

Well, I'm going to be just as enamored of that car.

I just don't care whether humans designed it or not.

It's the aesthetics of the car that are going to capture me.

But when you're talking about information and whether or not it is real, whether or not it seems to depict some corner of reality, and yet it's possible that it's just all fake because of how good AI is now at faking things, then that does force a kind of...

epistemological bankruptcy when you're in the presence of totally credible fakes.

I mean, so it's like, it's like, I mean, the last night where it's a, the war in Iran was, you know, we, a ceasefire was declared last night and, um, yeah, missiles were still raining down on Tel Aviv apparently.

Right.

But I, initially I saw some video and I realized I can't tell whether this is real or fake.

Right.

I just have to wait for some credible gatekeeper.
